Answer:
Larger number:
16
Smaller number
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Larger number: 16
Smaller number: 3
Explanation:
Suppose the larger number is
a
and the smaller number is
b
.
You solve the following system of equations:
a⋅b=48
a−13=b
Since b is a −13, you can plug that into a⋅b=48, so...a⋅(a−13)=48
a 2−13a=48
a2−13a−48=0
Factor the polynomial:
(a−16)(a+3)=0
a=16 or a=−3a is positive so a=16.
We can now solve for b by plugging in a, so...16−13=b3=b We have a=16 and b=3, meaning that the larger number is 16 and the smaller number is 3.
Notice how points T and Z are vertically aligned, or vertically lined up. This is where the graph fails the vertical line test.
The input x = 2 leads to the outputs y = 3 and y = 5 (which are the y coordinates of points Z and T in that order).
A function is only possible when any given input leads to <u>exactly one</u> output only. It would be like saying "the conversion function from Celsius to Fahrenheit has 0 degrees C convert to both 32 degrees F and 50 degrees F at the same time". But such a statement makes no sense and it's not useful. So this is one example of why having one output makes sense for a function.
In short, we need one output for any given input. But the input x = 2 leads to more than one output. That's why we don't have a function.
